Inside the issue, we celebrate the centenary of Avedon’s birth with reflections from a range of cultural figures and a personal essay by author and poet Jake Skeets.

The issue also includes Salomé Gómez-Upegui on American artists and reproductive justice; a conversation about themes of identity and liminality in Gagosian’s Rites of Passage exhibition; and features on painters Harold Ancart and Katharina Grosse.

In the serialized fiction feature, Percival Everett continues his gripping tale of a wayward New Mexican artist retreat. The magazine’s pages also honor artistic voices past and present, including those of Clarice Lispector, Dorothy Miller, Brian O’Doherty, Martine Syms, and many more.
